I just found a big box full of mint condition SM mags from the mid-late 80's.

Cant believe my luck, I've got plenty of reading material for a looong time.

also, there is a "The History Of TORANA From Viva to Victory. its got a heap of old ads and stuff, aswell as a complete history of all the torana's from HB to UC

Sorry i wont be able to get any pics.

I know! so much better than the recent ones.

After i read these, most of them will probbly be stored to retain value. they are in MINT condition, like the were produced yesterday.

Keep them that way.
My biggest regret is cutting up my mags for School assignments. I've got every issue from Dec 1990 to present, bar 4. Got one yesterday off a customer, one that got confiscated by my Yr 8 English teacher. Sept 1992. Ahh the cars, the terrible pastel era and mullets! :D
